I have to say it...
Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday.
Anybody with me?
My sister-in-law's dog, Madigan, makes sure she is using proper technique to slice the turkey
Here's the thing... it's a little chaotic, involves a lot of driving, but in one day we get
to spend time with my side of the family
to spend time with his side of the family
to eat two very good meals
to play with our nieces and nephews
to think about all the things we are grateful for, and say thank you
Thanksgiving is really a "lite" version of Christmas. It contains all the togetherness without having the stress and worry about giving gifts.
And that's why it is my favorite. We get to focus on each other, catching up and playing games with those we love, and don't get to see enough of throughout the year.
Of course, the mountains of food that will inevitably and consumed doesn't hurt either.
So this Thanksgiving, I hope you enjoy time with your loved ones. Give them an extra hug, slow down and stay a few moments longer. Be thankful for everything from the shoes on your feet to the roof over your head.
And know that I am thankful for you. Family, friends, clients, and blog-stalkers, I am thankful for you!
Happy thanksgiving.
